{"product_id":"sharps-pygmy-japanese-maple","title":"Sharp’s Pygmy Japanese Maple","description":"\u003cp\u003eSharp’s Pygmy Japanese Maple gives gardeners the elegance of Acer palmatum in a naturally compact form made for refined, close-up spaces. Its dense, rounded habit, small green leaves and brilliant fall color make it a standout for patios, rock gardens, bonsai culture and Japanese-style plantings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGive Small Spaces a Premium Focal Point\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSharp’s Pygmy offers the graceful look of a Japanese maple without overpowering the design. It fits beautifully in courtyards, containers, patio beds, rock gardens and small yards where larger trees can feel out of scale. Use it near an entry, seating area or garden path where its form can be enjoyed every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCreate a More Polished Garden Look\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis maple brings the kind of detail that makes a garden feel thoughtfully designed. Small, five-lobed green leaves with coarsely toothed edges create refined texture from spring through summer. The dense branching gives the plant a full, finished shape, making it especially valuable in bonsai culture, Zen gardens and carefully planned container displays.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKeep Your Design in Balance Longer\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause Sharp’s Pygmy grows slowly, it is easier to place and plan around than faster-growing trees. It helps small gardens, courtyards and container plantings keep their intended scale over time. That steady pace is a real benefit when every plant needs to fit neatly and contribute to the overall design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEnd the Season With Color Customers Remember\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn autumn, the green foliage shifts to fiery orange-red tones, giving this compact maple a bold seasonal finish. After the leaves drop, its strong branch structure adds winter interest and keeps the plant useful beyond the growing season. Plant it in sun to partial shade in Zones 5–8, where its color, form and fine detail can be appreciated up close.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Spring Hill Nursery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52193536835880,"sku":"17419","price":149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/5784\/1448\/files\/17419.webp?v=1785942652","url":"https:\/\/springhillnursery.com\/products\/sharps-pygmy-japanese-maple","provider":"Spring Hill Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
